Home schooling can be a very controversial topic.
When preparing my speech, I had to make sure I had facts that would get my audience really thinking. Though, the survey that I did show that none of my audience home school their children. My goal was to make sure that if they ever decide to think about home schooling, they think twice on all the negative that comes along with
it.
Persuasive speaking can have a positive aspect in the global community. Everyday someone is trying to persuade someone to think or do something. Think of all the commercials that are on tv always trying to persuade us to buy this or that or to go out and do this or that. While some of it might not be of importance there is a lot that is. Think of someone who does not believe in vaccination. I actually just met someone who is totally against it because they think it's a scam. After using my knowledge from my microbiology class. I was able to persuade this person to look more into the harm not vaccinating can do. That is a a positive thing!
When I reflect on my persuauvissve speech. I feel I left a positive message. My goal was not to bash home schooling it was to get my audience to think differently about it. I gave them actual facts on how it has little accountably for curriculum choices.
